Basic Information

Zea mays
Accession: ICG00115
Latin Name: Zea mays
Common Name: Corn, Maize
Taxonomy ID: 4577
Description: Zea mays subsp. mays is a large grain plant first domesticated by indigenous peoples in southern Mexico about 10,000 years ago. The leafy stalk of the plant produces separate pollen and ovuliferous inflorescences or ears, which are fruits, yielding kernels or seeds. It is one of the most important cereal crops, also plays a growing role in industry and energy resources. However, major global abiotic stresses such as drought, heat, cold, and salinity cause huge reductions in the production every year. Additionally, hormones have been implicated in the plant response to numerous abiotic and biotic stresses, as well as developmental processes.
